Play and Communication Development - Better Speech

Play is important for early development of communication skills.

play allows children to learn how to share, to negotiate, to resolve conflicts, decision-making skills, move at their own pace, discover their own areas of interest, how to work in groups and to learn self-advocacy skills.

Play is a joyful part of childhood.

 

The interactions that occur through play tell children that parents are fully paying attention to them and help in building enduring parent- child relationship.

 

 

Children express their views, experiences, and even frustrations through play, allowing their parents an opportunity to gain a fuller understanding of their perspective. Quite simply, play offers parents a wonderful opportunity to engage fully with their children.

 

It has been shown to help children adjust to the school setting, making new friends and even to enhance children’s learning readiness, learning behaviours, and problem-solving skills.
